SensorTag: How to capture/record sensor data overtime

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2541, CC2540

I am new to the all of this.

I have an BLE enabled Android (4.3) device. I used the app supplied by TI to get the data from the sensor. However, it is point in time data.

I would like to capture the sensor data over time (say a reading every 5 minutes over a 24 hour period). I am willing to learn. I would appreciate if someone could point me to the right direction. 

  • Hi,

    Then you have to download the BLE SDK (www.ti.com/ble-stack) and use IAR Embedded Workbench for 8051 to modify the embedded source code.

    You could update the sensortag firmware by three things;

    • Using a CC Debugger to manually re-flash the CC2541
    • Using a CC2540 USB Dongle and perform an OAD download of your modified code.
    • Using iOS device to perform an OAD Download of your modified code.

    Best Regards

  • Thanks for the information above Joakim.

    How do I go about reading the embedded source code? Where can I find the code? Do I need to read it off the CC2541 or is it available on the TI site somewhere?
